Annual Refresher
Training
Clinical and General Safety
The Clinical and General Safety
self-instruction refresher training reviews the exposure control
principles and practices in compliance with the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogens and Hazard
Communication Standards. This refresher training is intended for
those staff and students who do not work in a lab but do come in
direct contact with patients; handle clinical specimens; routinely
work in a clinical environment; or handle biological (red bag)
waste. This includes graduate students, medical students,
physicians, post-doctoral fellows, clinical and housekeeping staff.
To be eligible to take this
self-instruction refresher training, you must have already attended
initial Instructor-led training.
Training is accomplished by completing
the following steps:
Step 1
Verify that you have received initial Instructor-led Training.
Refresher training is only available if you received
initial training from EHS. Open the
initial EHS training list and
find your name. If you do not find your name you have not taken the initial Instructor-led
Training and do not qualify for this training. If you feel the
information is incorrect, contact EHS.
Step 2
Review the
Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Plan,
Hazard Communication
Program and
Fire Safety
Plan (in Acrobat PDF
format).
Step 3
Using the documents listed in "Step 2,"
complete the on-line examination.
Click here to begin the exam (use your CWID and password to
log in).
Note: You must provide your employee/student ID#
on the exam. If you do not know your ID#,
review the
list
of employee/student ID's sorted by last name.
Step 4
At the beginning of each
month, EHS staff will score the tests and input the results. There
is no need to contact EHS before that time to determine the status. A follow up email will be sent with the
certificate of completion once the test is scored (80% score is
passing).
NOTE: If you do not have a CWID to
log into the refresher training, you may take a written refresher
training. For more information, contact EHS.
